The stranger is back

Well it has been awhile since i have been on here, but I have been working 2 jobs and the internet is a seldom used product. I took on a job at Tractor Supply part time to get my winter excercise in and yep it works I tend to walk around that store 8-12 miles a day believe me my pedometer doesn't lie plus alot of feed bag lifting. I am officially down from 315 lbs. 2 years ago at the start of 2 weightloss surgeries ( Lapband had to be removed and then insurance paid for the sleeve ) which I wanted in the first place and I weighed in at 219 lbs. as of yesterday. It took me awhile in the 220's because thats the weight I was at when I started gaining weight when I quit smoking.  I have a ton of energy for a just turned 55 year old. I am enjoying my new self and will post some pics later But i hope everyone has a safe and Merry Christmas  I know I will. I also want to say hi to all the new folks here and wish everyone a happy surgery for their new year it works if you help it work.

Dusty glad to know you are doing well. Great job on the weight loss ! Happy to hear you have so much energy too ! Hope you had a nice holiday. My 2 son's love Tractor Supply.  Take care.

Hey there Dusty!

Good to see you. Glad you are doing well....keep on rockin it!

Hey Dusty! Good to hear from you. I was just thinking about you the other day when talking to someone who had a similar experience as you with the band (if you can believe it). Anyway, happy holidays and congratulations on your progress! :)

Hi Dusty!!!


Happy Holidays!   I hope you had a great one.
I am so glad to see your post.  Congratulations on the wonderful weight loss.  You are not far from your goal weight.  I can't wait to see pics! Happy Belated birthday.
Keep up the great work and stop being such a stranger.

All the best,
